Plug in a 2013 Gibson Les Paul and play a piece of history.

Looking for the right 2013 Les Paul? Browse our guide below to find Les Pauls with '57 Classic humbuckers, 490s, BurstBuckers, P-90s, and Dirty Fingers pickups. Each pickup is tailor-made to give you a colorful and expressive tonal palette to fit your style of music.

2013 Les Pauls with '57 Classic Humbucker Pickups
Often regarded as the "true" Gibson Les Paul sound, '57 Classic Humbuckers deliver a warm, smooth tone that is anything but mild. Eric Clapton, Duane Allman, and B.B. King have all used this pickup to achieve their saturated, overdriven sound. The '57 Classic Plus pickup, located in the bridge position on the Les Paul Signature T, is over-wound for a slightly hotter output -- allowing you to drive your preamp tubes harder without losing any tonal qualities.

2013 Les Pauls with 490R & 490T Pickups
Gibson's 490R and 490T pickups have a sound that harkens back to late '60s and '70s heavy blues-rock artists such as Led Zeppelin, Cream, and The Rolling Stones. The 490s have a tone similar to the P.A.F. humbuckers, but with modern refinements such as coil-tapping built in on select models. Activate the coil-tapping feature to transform this classic humbucker into a single-coil, giving you an unlimited array of tonal possibilities.

2013 Les Pauls with BurstBucker Pickups
The Gibson BurstBucker pickup is a nod to the first-generation P.A.F. humbuckers. In the 1950s and '60s, before technology streamlined guitar manufacturing, pickups were wound manually and thus had slight differences in tone from unit to unit. The BurstBucker recalls these slight differences by varying the amount of winding between the BurstBucker 1 and BurstBucker 2, giving you the distinct harmonic characteristics of '50s and '60s rock and roll.

On Les Paul Standard and Premium models, Gibson ups the ante with a pair of BurstBucker Pro pickups. Also known as the BurstBucker V, this "Pro" version of the BurstBucker adds an Alnico 5 magnet to sharpen its vintage "edge."

2013 Les Pauls with P-90 Pickups
The Gibson P-90 has a hotter output than a standard single-coil pickup, yet it delivers a bark and growl that's slightly edgier than a humbucker. A wide range of tones can be achieved with the P-90, from a soulful blues croon, to a rock and roll rhythm assault -- and everything in between. With a distinctive mid-range that cuts easily through any mix, the P-90 is the perfect choice for guitarists looking for a different tonal flavor.

2013 Les Pauls with Dirty Fingers Pickups
Looking for a pickup to give you that modern rock tone? The Gibson Dirty Fingers pickup is a high-output, high-gain monster. Built to rage, this pickup allows chords to shine and sizzle without losing the tonality or harmonic overtones. The wax-potted design eliminates microphonic feedback that is associated with some high-gain pickups, and lends these Les Pauls crystal-clear sound with an attitude.

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!
